It's been cool and damp, the kind of day that's good for movies and a nice fire. Sadly, I shut our stove down a couple weeks ago... :(
Gotta love it when you fall into wood. Time to split!
My stove takes 22" E/W, I like cut at 19 -20 because it's easier to fit in the door. I'm one of those OCD guys that measures each cut with my...
